What happened to my Gold Membership status?

Why? That is part of the reason I went Gold! If I delete them just to check on why I lost what I paid for, that doesn't make good sense now does it?

You did the right thing Roy. My apologies for the aggravation. At least it wasnt very long. C and I were both on it so fast we dont know who actually fixed it because we both did it at the same time... :)
